Under the Sun: An Outdoor Exhibition of Light
Follow the successful efforts to harness the sun's power for home and industry, beginning in 1830 with the work of Edmund Becquerel, who discovered that photovoltaic cells had the power to convert sunlight to electricity. Objects include a tent covered in thin-film photovoltaic panels, a solar-powered decorative fountain, a solar cooker, a prototype for a solar-powered laptop, and a sundial with twelve chairs, each of which provides enough light to read by at night. Organized by Lucy Fellowes. Sponsored by BP Solar and the United States Department of Energy.

Tangible Tuesdays: OnObject
Tangible Earth, the interactive globe now on view here at Cooper-Hewitt, engages the sense of touch to create a feeling of connection between people and their planet. Lots of designers today are exploring ways to enhance digital devices with touch. For example, MIT Media Lab's OnObject system can turn any object into a tactile interactive interface. The user can tag any object—a cup, a marker, a book, even their clothing—with a vocabulary of sounds, sights or other media using RFID sensors.

Subway Success
I lived in New York for a few months in 1965, when people were afraid to stand on a station platform alone, or board a train without protection from friends, and there was a police officer in every car. What a contrast from this week, when I rode the Lexington Avenue Express downtown to attend a talk by Masamichi Udagawa.

As a father of two kids, I am the happiest when they self organize their things without my intervention. Well, that might be a bit of a stretch when it comes to kids, but it's actually a reality for unplanned, plug-and-play femtocells, thanks to Qualcomm's UltraSON (Ultra Self Organizing Network).

Even with Meade County struggling Friday night, the visiting Central Hardin Lady Bruins were no match for the Lady Waves.
Meade County shot 34.6 percent (18-of-52) from the field, but four players scored in double figures as the Lady Waves won for the eighth time in the last nine games, 70-31.
Despite going 3-of-9 from the field, junior guard Raley Johnson led the Lady Waves (19-9) with 17 points. Sophomore guard Morgan Turner chipped in with 15 points, 12 rebounds, two assists and one steal.

OP-ED: Recently, Nickelodeon received a massive petition calling for stricter nutrition standards for advertising directed at kids. Should Nick's executives ban commercials for unhealthy food?
The reality is, America is fixated on reality TV shows. So what's the big deal? Find out why we're obsessed and what it means about our personalities.
After working a late day at the office, nothing sounds better than curling up on the couch, turning on the TV, and chowing down on some food. But that little slice of heaven may be hell on the body.
Contributing writer and pop culture guru Lisa LaValle Overmyer begins her regular looks at the intersections of entertainment and health. This week's topic? NBC's hit weight loss reality show.

I have mentioned several times that processed sugars cause a majority of our health problems. Problems like diabetes, high triglycerides, heart disease, bone loss to name a few.
The biggest culprit is high-fructose corn syrup which is used the most in sodas, fruit juices, cookies, gum, jellies, and baked goods. It is cheaper than pure cane sugar so it is the most common processed sugar in manufactured foods. Researchers suggest that fructose contributes not only to the above problems, but also weight gain. Be aware that a product that spouts low fat or no fat may have a great deal of sugar.
Limit your consumption of sugars and you will find an increase in energy and health. Get back to basics and consider your choices for good health. Sources are www.mercola.com

The EOS M is Canon's long-awaited mirrorless system camera, introduced in June 2012. With an 18MP APS-C CMOS sensor and a multi-touch 3.0 inch LCD screen, the EOS M offers full HD video recording at 1080 30p, 25p and 24p, with a built-in stereo microphone. With tracking AF enabled, continuous shooting tops out at 3 frames per second, and with a single AF point burst speed is bumped up to 4.3 fps. The EOS M introduces a new mount, and two lenses were announce alongside the camera - the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM and 22mm f/2.0 pancake. The camera itself adheres to a clean and modern design aesthetic, providing touch screen shooting mode selection rather than making space for a physical mode dial. A rubberized thumb rest and finger grip on the front panel provide a secure hand-hold, and the EOS M offers quick access to its Intelligent Auto shooting mode via a three-position switch surrounding the shutter.

A little Canon in my Canon system
The quality feel of this little canon is great. (Compared to the plastic NEX-5). The M-lenses are optically great too. I'm using the M with the 22mm as a pocketable alternative to my 5D mkIII . It's always with me, even at work. The other Canon alternative was the powershot G1x, but I do prefer the 18mp 2/3 sensor. Autofocus is sloooowww (but very accurate, even with 22mm at /f2.0). Autofocus point selection by touch works great. The touch screen is fantastic! The EF-M lens adapter works ad ...
Holding on to it
My first impression of the Canon EOS M when I picked it up was wonderful, well built little camera, solid, strong, tight. then I started shooting with it and got a little frustrated with the focusing problems. The image quality is excellent...I love it. The video is very good. I know my expectation were really high after coming from a EOS Mark II. I knew it would have the and quality as the Mark II but it almost did. The video can't touch the Mark II but the image quality is close. All in ...
Lots of power in a small package - slow AF
The EOS M is an extremely powerful camera capable of SLR level results, paired with the excellent EF-M 22mm lens (all I have a this point). Don't expect anything less than stellar results, with clean, noise free images up to ISO 1600, and even usable images at 6400. Certainly more usable than my 7D. However, you can only expect these results when you have TIME to focus. Chasing a small running child (as I do now daily) is a struggle in futility. What makes it harder still is the weird ...
Perfect Replacement for Compacts
I'm a hobbyist. I used Nikon during the film-era and shifted to Canon when I went digital. I started with 10D, 40D, 7D, 5DM2, and now 5DM3 and using all the most popular L zoom lenses and a select range of fixed prime lenses (35mm, 85mm, 100mm Macro II, 135mm, etc.). On days when I travel (and I travel a lot) when I cannot bring a DSLR (which is most of the time), I always have my Canon Powershot S100 in my briefcase. I have taken thousands of shots on my compacts (I also have an S95 prior to ...

How to disable the turn-on function when the review button is pressed ?
Hi, I've one little problem : when I take my EOS-M from my bag, sometimes I press the review photos button making the EOS to be ON. Any idea to disable this ? Thanks Stef (Brussels)

You can mitigate the issue somewhat by setting the screen on and camera on to their minimum time settings. Continue Reading
Can find RAW selection on menu/quality
Hi, I am interested in getting a EOS M but was a little surprised when I could not see the RAW mode when I view the selections available through the menu/quality selection. All I saw was the jpeg modes (L,M,S and 2 more S if I remembered correctly). Did I missed something? Even the sale man was unable to help when I questioned to confirm whether I can shoot RAW with the EOS M. I saw that it has RAW mode in the instruction manual, but I just want to be sure and if possible know how I can select that on the camera. Secondly, which is a better buy, the Kit 1 or Kit 2 (I already have a EOS 5D II with some L lens). Thank you, and I look forward to an early clarification as there is a sale for the item now.
I only shoot raw with my m, be assured the option is there. I bought the kit with 1855 zoom and 22mm prime plus 90ex flash. The 22mm prime is incredible. The 1855 zoom is the sharpest kitlens I have encountered on apsc and mfourthirds Continue Reading
It's there. I too shoot only RAW. Continue Reading
Perhaps because you had one of the Creative Modes selected like HDR. Because these process the image in camera to achieve the effect they only output a JPEG. Whereas if you select M, Av, TV, or P modes then you can also chose RAW Continue Reading
Is EOS M suitable as a second Camera ?!!
Hi. photography is my Hobby. I have an EOS 60D with several lenses. i like to have my Camera with me anywhere but it's not possible & i know this is a problem fot many of us !! i want to ask; is EOS M suitable as a second & more available & accessible camera for me ?!! the most important question is autofocus speed. you think, it will be acceptable for me (in compered with EOS 60D) ?!! tanQ.
I just purchased it as a second camera to my 5D II - it is exactly what I was looking for - simple, easy to use and great IQ. I stayed away from this camera due to so many people stating how slowly it focused. I must say that is nonsense. It focuses as quickly (if not faster) than my Canon G-12 and is about what I would expect from a camera this size. At the current prices, I can't see how a person could go wrong with this camera. Continue Reading
Check out YouTube videos. There's a video of a pro photographer comparing the focus speed/accuracy of the EOS M to his Canon DSLR. In one segment, he uses the adapter with one of his DSLR lenses. In the time it took for him to focus on his daughter with the EOS M, she grew up, started a career, got married, had kids, and died:). Continue Reading
This is absolute nonsense, as anyone who has actually used the M (with updated firmware) can tell you. The focus speed is not as fast as a DSLR, such as the 60D, when used with optical viewfinder, but considerably faster than live view AF on the 60D. The M's AF is also considerably faster than a compact point and shoot, such as the Canon S100. It is perfectly fast enough for anything except fast action. Anyone who thinks otherwise either hasn't used it, is an idiot, or both. The AF is also very accurate. More so than a DSLR. I use my M as a second camera to my 7D. More accurately, the 7D is now the second camera to my M. This is because I have the M with me all the time. The 7D, even more so than the 60D, is too big to carry with me everywhere I go.

|Nam Tai Joins $1B Club, But Will It Stay There?
It's flown way under the radar but Nam Tai just became the newest member of the EMS $1 billion club, joining 13 other companies (not including the major Taiwanese ODMs like Quanta, Wistron and Compal).
The company crossed the threshold thanks to a spectacular fourth quarter in which sales jumped more than 250% year-over-year. Nam Tai, which ranked 22d on the CIRCUITS ASSEMBLY Top 50 in 2011, will certainly move into the Top 15 when all the 2012 list comes out in April. Nam Tai's fourth quarter sales alone would be enough to place the company in the top 30.
What drove the upswing? The company finally saw its investments in LCD modules for smartphones and tablets pay off.It was also boosted by sales of LCDs to the automotive industry, particularly US OEMs.
But can this last? Nam Tai has invested heavily in capacity in southern China, and has another 1.2 million sq. ft. "parcel" of land that it plans to develop -- twice the amount of its present Shenzhen campus. This is all the more amazing because Nam Tai's two existing factories are capable of about $150 million in revenue per month each, meaning its current capacity utilization is around 30%. Yet its stated operating margins are a healthy 8.2% and the gross margin as a percent of net sales was 10.5% for the quarter.
Chairman Ming Kown Koo humbly suggests Nam Tai was "lucky" to see gross margins top 10% last quarter, but thinks they will stabilize around 6% to 7% in the coming quarters, even though the company plans to hire 43% more staff -- 3,000 workers -- this year.
This is a story worth watching. Either Nam Tai will push forward into the next EMS tiers, or it will come crashing down, another victim of over-expansion and unpredictable end-markets.
|Eastern-US: China's New Competitor?
Parity emerges among EMS Factories from Asia, Mexico and the US.
For the first time in years we see parity in the Eastern US among EMS factories from Asia, Mexico and the US. This EMS market condition will permit American OEMs (the EMS industry refers to OEMs as customers) to have more EMS pathways to choose from. Now more than ever, such EMS assignments will require deeper investigation relating to the OEMs' evaluation of manufacturing strategies.

When the blind man arrived in the city, he claimed that he had travelled across a desert of living sand. First he had died, he said, and then—snap!—the desert. He told the story to everyone who would listen, bobbing his head to follow the sound of their footsteps. Showers of red grit fell from his beard. He said that the desert was bare and lonesome and that it had hissed at him like a snake. He had walked for days and days, until the dunes broke apart beneath his feet, surging up around him to lash at his face, then everything went still and began to beat like a heart. The sound was as clear as any he had ever heard. It was only at that moment, he said, with a million arrow-points of sand striking his skin, that he had truly realized he was dead.
Jim Singer, who managed the sandwich shop in the monument district, said that he had felt a prickling sensation in his fingers and then stopped breathing. "It was my heart," he insisted, thumping on his chest. "Took me in my own bed." He had closed his eyes, and when he opened them again he was on a train, the kind that trolleys small children around in circles at amusement parks. The rails were leading him through a thick forest of gold-brown trees, but the trees were actually giraffes, and their long necks were reaching like branches into the sky. A wind rose up and peeled the spots from their backs. The spots floated down around him, swirling and dipping in the wake of the train. It took him a long time to understand that the throbbing noise he heard was not the rattling of the wheels along the tracks.
The girl who liked to stand beneath the poplar tree in the park said that she had died into an ocean the color of dried cherries. For a while, the water had carried her weight, she said, and she lay on her back turning in meaningless circles, singing the choruses of the pop songs she remembered. But then there was a drum of thunder, and the clouds split open, and the ball bearings began to pelt down around her—tens of thousands of them. She had swallowed as many as she could, she said, stroking the cracked trunk of the poplar tree. She didn't know why. She filled like a lead sack and sank slowly through the layers of the ocean. Shoals of fish brushed past her, their blue and yellow scales the brightest thing in the water. And all around her she heard that sound, the one that everybody heard, the regular pulsing of a giant heart.
The stories people told about the crossing were as varied and elaborate as their ten billion lives, so much more particular than the other stories, the ones they told about their deaths. After all, there were only so many ways a person could die: either your heart took you, or your head took you, or it was one of the new diseases. But no one followed the same path over the crossing. Lev Paley said that he had watched his atoms break apart like marbles, roll across the universe, then gather themselves together again out of nothing at all. Hanbing Li said that he woke inside the body of an aphid and lived an entire life in the flesh of a single peach. Graciella Cavazos would say only that she began to snow—four words—and smile bashfully whenever anyone pressed her for details.
No two reports were ever the same. And yet always there was the drumlike thumping noise.
Some people insisted that it never went away, that if you concentrated and did not turn your ear from the sound, you could hear it faintly behind everything in the city—the brakes and the horns, the bells on the doors of restaurants, the clicking and slapping of different kinds of shoes on the pavement. Groups of people came together in parks or on rooftops just to listen for it, sitting quietly with their backs turned to each other. Ba-dum. Ba-dum. Ba-dum. It was like trying to keep a bird in sight as it lifted, blurred, and faded to a dot in the sky.
Luka Sims had found an old mimeograph machine his very first week in the city and decided to use it to produce a newspaper. He stood outside the River Road Coffee Shop every morning, handing out the circulars he had printed. One particular issue of the L. Sims News & Speculation Sheet—the Sims Sheet, people called it—addressed the matter of this sound. Fewer than twenty per cent of the people Luka interviewed claimed that they could still hear it after the crossing, but almost everyone agreed that it resembled nothing so much as—could be nothing other than—the pounding of a heart. The question, then, was where did it come from? It could not be their own hearts, for their hearts no longer beat. The old man Mahmoud Qassim believed that it was not the actual sound of his heart but the remembered sound, which, because he had both heard and failed to notice it for so long, still resounded in his ears. The woman who sold bracelets by the river thought that it was the heartbeat at the center of the world, that bright, boiling place she had fallen through on her way to the city. "As for this reporter," the article concluded, "I hold with the majority. I have always suspected that the thumping sound we hear is the pulse of those who are still alive. The living carry us inside them like pearls. We survive only so long as they remember us." It was an imperfect metaphor—Luka knew that—since the pearl lasts much longer than the oyster. But rule one in the newspaper business was that you had to meet your deadlines. He had long since given up the quest for perfection.

Every day that I come here, I'm amazed by the awesome photos I see. I love to take photos of whatever catches my eye. Usually my photos have something to do with nature. Insects and flowers have always been a big interest. You can also find me on Flickr. Summer '09 goal: Aiming to take pictures daily, and upload some of my favorites. I hope people enjoy them as much as I do. Most of the time, the fun comes from taking the pictures, more than the actual results. Create your own visitor map! Counter started: 6-21-09

We went to her place when it was at Venetian Village for lunch. I ordered seltzer water out of the soda machine tap...nothing special or bottled or imported from France. I asked the waitress if I am able to have refills. She told me yes. So during the course of my lunch I had 2 refills of seltzer. When the check came, I was charged $9 for the 3 glasses of seltzer. I complained to Marie-Michelle and she pretty much told me to pound sand. She was VERY nasty and not accomodating at all.
Since she didn't want to fix the check & remove the $6 overcharge. I paid with my American Express Card & charged the WHOLE $45 check back to her. See Marie-Michelle, you didn't win that time. She is a very nasty and unaccomodating woman...and that is being nice...

Lady of the Flies
During the recent heat wave our dog Ivy got a little lazy. Instead of going to the back of our yard to do her business, she began to do it just outside our backdoor. I'm usually pretty good about picking up after her right away, but I missed one the other day.
You know what happens to unattended piles. They bring unwelcome guests; lots and lots of flies.
Unfortunately, this particular pile was right by our door, so when somebody opened the back door, the flies quickly found a new home inside our house.
If you've never been in a "house of flies" before, it's not just disgusting and annoying–it's like a horror movie. Those little buggers buzz in and out, with speed and deception. Now you see 'em, now you don't. It's like they are begging for you to attack, and each kill is a challenge.
But here's something I didn't know about my dainty wife Bridget, and I suspect the flies didn't know it either: Bridget has a white-hot, temple-throbbing hatred of flies.
When they started buzzing around us, Bridget transformed into a cold blooded killing machine.
She grabbed that fly swatter and immediately went to work. First she turned off all the lights inside the house except for one, luring the flies to their eventual graves. Then she calmly waited for each of them to land in her kill zone. When they landed, THWAP!
"Who's buzzing now?" she screamed over that first carcass.
She was screaming and thwapping, laughing and taunting, hunting and killing with a blood lust that frankly scared me a little bit.
"Oh the ol' fly away when I approach technique, eh?" she said to an unfortunate victim that looked like he was about escape. "I DON'T THINK SO!" (Thwap)
Right before my eyes, my petite flower was turning into Rambo. When she thought they were all dead, inevitably another one would emerge, and Bridget would pounce. "Take THAT!" (Thwap)
Then another. "Shoo fly, don't BOTHER ME!" (Thwap)
She was grunting like Monica Seles serving an ace with each overhand thwap.
Finally, we were down to one elusive fly. The boys and I were watching television in the basement, and Bridget appeared to be watching too, but her eyes were not on the tube. They were on the lookout for the "Last of the Flyhicans".
This fly was elusive and crafty. It buzzed in our vicinity, and Bridget pounced. THWACK. Missed him. The fly flew up the stairs, but Bridget would not be denied. She stormed after him with flyswatter in hand. "Don't you run away from me, you coward!"
I didn't see what happened next, but I heard a loud crash followed by an evil laugh.
"Rick, come up here, you have to see this."
She was standing in the kitchen, weapon in hand, cackling at the site in front of her. The fly was dangling from the side of the light, clinging to his last moments of life. She had incapacitated him, but hadn't yet finished him off. She waited until I witnessed her dangling prey, before completing her mission with one last THWACK.
I used to joke that nobody would dare mess with us because we have a pit bull and she doesn't take too kindly to uninvited guests. During Bridget's fly rampage, that pit bull was hiding in her crate.
Even a pit bull knows better than to mess with the Lady of the Flies.

Reviews for Rhubarb Cookies(11)
Sort By :
Followed the recipe exactly. I expected more from this well-rated recipe. I ended up with dry, tasteless "cookies". If I try this again, I would reduce the amount of flour first. The flavor of the fresh rhubarb and coconut was just not there. Threw the whole batch out.
These are VERY good. not great for a hot day though because the icing melts, difficult to pack and bring with you
Perfect. No frosting needed. Very moist.
Made these delicious cookies with a bit of hesitation - didn't know if they would turn out because I had never tried rhubarb, but they turned out great and tasted so yummy. I recommend cutting the rhubarb small to make more even cookies. Very good; everyone enjoyed these.
Rhubarb lovers will love these cookies! The rhubarb/coconut combo is terrific. I chose not to frost them, but instead left some plain and some lightly sprinkled with icing sugar. Addictive!

County Offers New Deferred Compensation Option
In December 2010, the Human Resources Department launched a Request for Information (RFI) to consider our 457 plan options. Eleven companies responded to the RFI and were thoroughly evaluated by staff. Based on this evaluation, we will be providing County employees with a new opportunity to participate in the NC 457 Plan, administered by Prudential Retirement, while also maintaining the current 457 Plan administered by ICMA-RC. We also will continue to offer the current NC 401(k) plan.
The NC 457 Plan offers a unique "Transfer Benefit" distribution option that allows employees to move funds at or after retirement to the NC Local Government Employees Retirement System (LGERS), which will generate an additional, guaranteed lifetime monthly retirement benefit. Additionally, the NC 457 Plan offers portability for employees who stay in NC public employment. Plan members may continue their contributions to the Plan if they move to another position with the State or with another NC local government agency that offers the Plan. As with the Local Government Employees Retirement System (LGERS) and the NC 401(k) Plan, investment oversight is provided by the NC Department of State Treasurer and the Supplemental Plans' Board of Trustees.
Permanent employees who receive County benefits are eligible to receive matching contributions from the County of up to a total 3% of gross pay when they participate in one or a combination of these plans. The chart below displays how the County will administer the matching dollars to employees that choose to participate in multiple plans.
Board members with questions should contact HR Director Chris Peek via email or call 704-336-3138.
White House Conference Call
As a follow up to the President Obama's address last night, White House officials will be hosting conference calls to provide additional information on the President's job proposals. The NC-specific call will be held today, Friday, September 9 at 3 p.m. and can be joined by dialing 800-398-9367. The White House has not indicated how long the call will last or whether there will be an opportunity for questions and answers.
Board members with questions should contact Assistant to the County Manager Brian Francis via email or call 704-336-2611.

With defensive stats that surpass the likes of Skarmory, Tangrowth is among the sturdiest physical walls in the game. With the introduction of Dream World abilities, Tangrowth received a fantastic ability in Regenerator, further increasing its defensive capabilities. It is no slouch offensively either, boasting above-average Attack and Special Attack, boosting moves such as Swords Dance and Growth, and a fairly extensive movepool. Tangrowth is burdened with a terrible Speed stat however, and this can make sweeping with Tangrowth incredibly hard, even with a boost from Chlorophyll. While sweeping may be out of the question, Tangrowth excels in what it was made to do in RU: tank.
This is Tangrowth's standard defensive set, functioning as a very effective tank that can switch in and out multiple times thanks to Regenerator. Sleep Powder is invaluable on almost every team, and Tangrowth makes great use of it with the number of switches it forces. As Tangrowth has solid offensive stats, it has two main options for its choice of STAB move. Giga Drain is a great choice because it provides extra healing which, in conjunction with Regenerator, greatly improves Tangrowth's longevity. It is also 100% accurate and can break Aggron's Substitutes among others. Giga Drain also lets Tangrowth beat physical attackers such as Feraligatr, Hitmonlee, and Medicham without losing too much health overall, and then be able to switch out to a teammate and be back to nearly full health. Power Whip, on the other hand, is slightly less accurate but will hit harder in general. Cryogonal and Slowking are hit much harder by Power Whip, and it will break 252/252 +SpD Gallade's Substitutes, unlike Giga Drain. Hidden Power Fire provides good coverage with a STAB Grass-type move, hitting opposing Grass-types that think they can switch into Tangrowth for decent damage, as well as Klinklang. It also stops Ferroseed from setting up Spikes on Tangrowth. Leech Seed is a fantastic move for Tangrowth, letting it wear down the opponent and recover HP simultaneously, not to mention it works fantastically in conjunction with Giga Drain. Leech Seed should also be Tangrowth's go-to move after Sleep Clause has been activated with Sleep Powder. The extra healing from Leech Seed on a Fire- or Steel-type opponent such as Entei makes it that much easier for a teammate, such as Alomomola, to take out the opponent.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Though primarily used as a physically bulky tank, Tangrowth also has excellent attacking stats, and in conjunction with Regenerator, it can make a great offensive Pokemon. STAB Leaf Storm coming off 110 base Special Attack is incredibly powerful, and will put large dents into even those that resist it. Focus Blast can destroy the Steel-types that would otherwise be able to take Leaf Storm reliably, such as Ferroseed. Hidden Power Rock provides good coverage with the other two moves, hitting Fire-types and particularly Moltres that can otherwise switch in easily. Sleep Powder is highly useful on this set, as it allows Tangrowth to essentially remove one of its counters from the game. Sleep Powder can be used even with Choice Specs, as Tangrowth will likely be switching out immediately after using it anyway, and switching out really only helps Tangrowth by regaining more health.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Chlorophyll is a really useful ability, patching up Tangrowth's subpar Speed while in the sun. Tangrowth has the distinct advantage of being a lot bulkier than the other sun sweepers, and it also gets Growth to bolster its excellent mixed stats. However, it really struggles to sweep even with the Speed boost, as many common Choice Scarf users, such as Manectric and Galvantula, will outspeed and KO it. Tangrowth's support movepool is fairly extensive, and other options such as Knock Off and Stun Spore can be used to disrupt the opposing team. A possible double powder set with Sleep Powder and Stun Spore can be very effective. Alternatively, Tangrowth can use Reflect to support its teammates. A Swords Dance set could be effective, but Tangrowth's poor Speed leaves a lot to be desired. Access to Sunny Day means Tangrowth could make a decent Sunny Day setter, especially with Sleep Powder. However, it shares a number of weaknesses with the main sun sweepers, and Uxie generally does a better job, being able to use Yawn and U-turn.
Checks and Counters
The best way to defeat Tangrowth is to prey on its much weaker Special Defense stat. Moltres and Charizard can easily switch in and KO Tangrowth, provided they avoid Sleep Powder. Despite not being specially-based, Entei can do the same with its Choice Band-boosted Flare Blitz and also cripple Tangrowth's defensive partner, Slowking, with Toxic. Accelgor is a great switch-in as well, resisting Grass-type moves and threatening Tangrowth with a powerful Bug Buzz. Certain defensive Pokemon can easily put a full stop to Tangrowth, particularly Roselia and Clefable, which are able to take any attack from Tangrowth (except Choice Specs Hidden Power Fire in Roselia's case). Weezing is an effective check to the defensive sets, but cannot stand up to repeated Leaf Storms from an offensive set. Pokemon with the Sap Sipper ability also carve out a particular niche in beating Tangrowth, and both Bouffalant and Sawsbuck do this with great efficiency.

Sushi >Sushi Deli One
828 Broadway, San Diego, CA | Directions 9210132.715793 -117.157186
Daily 11am-11pm
Neighborhoods: Core-Columbia, Central, Core - Columbia, Central San Diego
Do not go to this place – Awful, terrible. Do not go here. Sure, the food is ok and is actually good given the very low prices. There is a long wait and it is noisy, but that is no surprise. But, today I had a horrible experience. My son and I arrived at 1:15 pm. End of lunch rus but 75 minutes before closing. We ordered quickly and the waitress brought our soups right away. But, then, brefore barely starting the soup the waitress brings my son's order, chicken tempura platter. Ummm, ok, that isn't terrible, but. Then,, no food for me. No waitress. Or I see her but she runs by without stopping. I ordered the sushi monthly special so nothing esoteric, unusual, in fact, something that they are presumably making frequently all day long. 20 minutes goes by. My son is starving so he starts eating his now cold chicken tempura. The waitress finally stops by (I have my head on the table) and says she is sorry for the delay. I try to ask her how much longer but she is gone. 10 more minutes, my son is done eating and still no sushi. We just left. Still no waitress. This place is terrible. To serve one person at a table 30+(?+++) minutes before the other, to never tell me when my food would be ready or to offer a substitute or an appetizer, awful. Do not go here
don't believe the hype- long lines, rude & slow service, below average sushi – The food is below average, the prices are affordable, and the service is consistently poor. I've been here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. NEVER AGAIN. Lunch- long long lines (we were there at 11:30am). The service was sloooooooooow - we ended having to help ourselves to the sauces, dishes, napkins, etc. They got two of our four orders wrong. Dinner- the place was much more reasonable at night (no long lines; we were there at 7:30pm). Despite having a couple of open spaces, my family and I had to wait for a table. The food came out much quicker than when I was there for lunch. After dropping off our food, we didn't see the waitress again until we stopped her to ask for a box and the check. The guys who work here are cool, but the girls I ran into there were all rude and bitchy.
Editorial Review – Downtown sushi-lovers mecca draws crowds looking for their fresh, afforadable rolls who don't mind waiting in line.
I have banned Sushi Deli for life (sad to say) – Okay, I'm not one of those people to ever bash a restaurant and this pains me because when I first moved to San Diego, I was all about Sushi Deli. Good sushi at moderate prices - what's more to love? I worked in Hillcrest and we'd order take-out from Sushi Deli 2 every week.
Then they started messing up our orders, pretty much every time we ordered. My friend and I started dining in after work for Happy Hour and the sushi would be less-than-fresh. We were looking at each other going, 'what's going on?'
To make a long story short, the moment where I decided to ban Sushi Deli for life is when I visited the downtown location (sushi deli 1). First bad sign was the stank of the menus, which smelled like stale beer and old food. I didn't even want to touch them. We should have gotten up right then and there. Instead, the waitress came over and we ordered the special roll. I went up to go to the bathroom and came back and my food was on the table already. NOT a good sign when your sushi comes that quick.
We were halfway through our meal - which wasn't that great - when my friend screamed and threw her hands up, shouting an obscenity. I looked (though I didn't want to) at what had happened and I kid you not, a HUGE clump of hair was sticking out from her roll. She looked at me and said, "Oh my god. I almost put that in my mouth. I can't believe this. It's ruined."
Well, the waitress pretty much ignored us for about ten minutes of trying to get her attention. The manager still tried to charge us for our other rolls and was completely oblivious. Not to mention she looked like she was 21 and obviously had no customer relationship skills. I will never go back there.
Yeah, it may be cheap, but you get what you pay for. Just go a few more times and you'll see what I mean.
Busy, great prices, not great sushi – On a recent Friday the wait was already 20 minutes at 6pm, so we thought we were onto something good. I have to admit that at first, we were blown away by the prices (great value!) and the variety of creative rolls. Miso soup for 85 cents? sign me up. But the delicious steamy miso with tiny bits of tempura floating in it was where the yummy ended... The rice under our nigiri was terribly undercooked; crunchy, actually. The hand rolls and regular rolls had chilled soggy nori around them, leading us to believe that due to volume, everything must be cut, rolled or prepared in advance. If you are a true sushi lover, you will be disappointed. If some fun rolls, lower quality, and cheap prices will suffice, this is the spot. We are just REALLY REALLY PICKY about FRESH when it comes to raw fish.
Amazing!! – Sushi Deli One is sushi perfection! The food is delicious, the value is unbeatable, and drink specials for $5.00?!?! It doesn't get any better than this in San Diego County.

Eli Manning has taught us to never underestimate his talents again
Story Highlights
Eli's the quarterback I'd want under center in the last two minutes of a game
My five leading contenders to open the season against the Giants next season
Giants punter special teams player of the week; Wes Welker goat of the week
INDIANAPOLIS -- I still can't get over that throw from Eli Manning to Mario Manningham. As much as I respect the catch (it will be the greatest of Manningham's career, no matter how long he plays), I am in awe of the throw. How did Manning make that throw? Why make that throw? Why did he pick the target of the guy with a corner in coverage and a safety flying over to crush Manningham? The 38-yard throw -- which began an 88-yard, Super Bowl-winning touchdown drive that Bill Belichick will see in his nightmares -- is just one more reason to never, ever question how good Eli Manning is. He will have some crappy games the rest of his career, because two or three times a year he stinks. But I ask you: What quarterback alive do you want with the ball in his hands in the last two minutes of a big game?
Thought so. Eli Manning.
"That guy stole my MVP again,'' Justin Tuck (two sacks, three quarterback pressures) said. Kidding. Kidding!
So many thoughts, many about Manning, in the hours after the Giants' 21-17 Super Bowl win over the Patriots. Let's categorize them:
What makes Eli Eli
I've noticed this about the guy. Football's his job, and he likes it a lot. But let's say God tapped him on the shoulder tomorrow and said, "I've got different plans for you. You're going to be an architect.'' Manning would handle that pretty well. He is a sick competitor, but he'd figure a way to satisfy that part of his life. Golf with the other architects, Friday night poker, trying to be a better architect than anyone else out there.
"He just doesn't care,'' Giants defensive lineman Justin Tuck said by his locker 90 minutes after the Super Bowl. "He doesn't. If we lose the game today, life goes on. He's fine. He'll just start getting ready for next year. That's who he is.''
What I saw during Super Bowl week
As the pool reporter covering three full Giants practices during the week, I saw one series of plays that really interested me Thursday. In practice, most teams have first units playing against second-unit scout teams, with players on the scout teams simulating the opposition. But Giants coach Tom Coughlin likes to do a real two-minute drill, with first-team offense against first-team defense. And it's a big deal around the team. When the period for the two-minute drill came up Thursday, the defense got very excited. "UNLEASH THE HOUNDS!'' defensive tackle Chris Canty said, jogging on the field. "UNLEASH THE HOUNDS!'' And his mates got fired up too, even though in football practices, hitting the quarterback is verboten.
Then Eli Manning took the offense 75 yards in six plays, with no emotion whatsoever.
"Now, understand that this deal is set up for the offense to win,'' Tuck said. "Coach Coughlin places a lot of emphasis on the offense doing well. He knows we can't touch Eli. But watching him in that drill every week is why he's so good in the last couple of minutes of games. He gets that against us.''
"The week we were playing the Jets,'' backup quarterback David Carr told me after the game, "Eli threw an interception on the first play of that drill. The defense got really excited. They went out and played great against the Jets that week, and we won. The joke in our quarterback meeting room was, 'You gave the defense life.' ''
Now he's given them a second ring.
Eli in the clutch
|Last three Patriots-Giants games with 60 seconds left
Manning drove the Giants 83 yards for the winning touchdown in XLVI, 80 yards for the winning touchdown this year in the regular season, and 88 yards Sunday for the winning touchdown.
In three straight games against the best coach of this era and against an all-time quarterback, Manning has taken the ball with less than four minutes to play, trailing every time. And won every time.
Opening day is 214 days away, and the opening game of the 2012 season will be ...
Lots of candidates for the Giants to open with next September 6. The favorites, in order:
1. Green Bay. Easily the most attractive game, but will FOX lobby hard to keep it as a doubleheader game, and keep it from opening night?
2. New Orleans. Drew Brees-Eli Manning is a heck of a No. 2 choice.
3. Pittsburgh. Great story angles at the midpoint of the careers of Ben Roethlisberger and Eli Manning. Each will be entering year nine. If the Giants didn't get Manning in the 2004 draft, they'd have taken Big Ben. And each has two Super Bowl wins.
4. Philadelphia. Good rivalry game. Mike Vick, presumably healthy.
5. Dallas. But after FOX got robbed of both Giants-Cowboys games for 2011 by NBC, I doubt sincerely NBC's going to be lobbying for this game.
Thoughts on the Hall of Fame Class of 2012.
Saturday was my 20th Hall of Fame selection meeting, and not much has changed over the years, other than the increase of voters. There used to be 36; now there are 44. But these voters, media people from around the country, are strong-willed and opinionated -- many of them -- and what resulted Saturday is not a big surprise if you understand how the process works, and who votes.
There are two bones of contention coming out of the meeting -- at least that I've heard from readers, tweeters and other writers: the Bill Parcells snub and the logjam at wide receiver. I can't divulge conversations from the room; that's against Hall policy. It's also against Hall policy to divulge your vote. Now, I believe in transparency, but I'll follow the Hall's directives as long as I'm an active member of the committee. But as a voter, I always have felt comfortable saying I've supported one candidate or the other.
Re the wideouts: It's become obvious there's a logjam between the three eligible receivers -- Andre Reed, Cris Carter and Tim Brown. I have supported Carter consistently; I believe he's the best boundary receiver of all time. (That was a phrase coined by former Niner Randy Cross that I stole because it's so appropriate. Carter was superb at catching the ball at the very edge of the sideline before his feet hit the white of the sideline.) Reed has some staunch supporters. Carter has his. Brown too. But I think it's coming down to Carter and Reed.
In the same number of games with mostly lesser quarterbacks than Reed had, Carter caught 150 more passes for 43 more touchdowns. That carries a lot of weight with me. But I understand the conflict here. Reed was a very good receiver in his own right. I just feel Carter's better from a historical perspective. Obviously, if 80 percent of voters felt the way I feel, Carter would be in. I was asked in the last 36 hours what's going to change at receiver. I don't know. I'm not sure anything will change.
Re Parcells: When he was a coach, he was a lightning rod. Now that he's not coaching, he appears to be a lightning rod again in the Hall voting. I've also been a staunch supporter of Parcells, because of his consistency in taking poor teams and turning them into winners -- either big winners or better winners than they'd been. I'm not sure how the 10th-winningest coach ever, with two Super Bowls and piloting four woebegone teams to the playoffs, doesn't get in. But there are obviously those in the room who view his accomplishments much different than I do. It's like always say: I'm one of 44. I can argue a man's case strenuously, but the room is a democracy.
Now, I'd love to be more transparent about the discussion in the room, but we are under a confidentiality agreement, per Hall rules. I would love to tell you who I voted for precisely. Just know that I think all six men who were enshrined are deserving. We're put in a tough spot here. I'm trying to be as forthcoming as I can.
Congratulations, Matt Birk.
The NFL Man of the Year award went to the veteran Ravens center. He beat out Philip Rivers and Charles Tillman, and he did it by going all-in on encouraging kids to read. His acceptance speech Saturday night at the NFL Honors awards was touching and smart.
"Reading is a skill from which all others follow,'' Birk said. "Mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, grandparents, baby sitters ... even Steeler fans ... anyone who has instilled the love of reading in a child, this is for you.''
Couldn't have said it better.
Luck of the draw.
Stanford's Andrew Luck, the likely No. 1 overall NFL draft pick in 11 weeks, was in Indianapolis Thursday to have his body tested and analyzed by Gatorade Sports Science. "I felt like a laboratory rat,'' Luck said. "Pretty valuable, though. I was educated about how much sodium you lose when you're an athlete, and educated on time frames for nutrition -- not just what to eat, but when to eat it.'' He didn't stay for the game. Actually, he stayed for about five hours, just enough to have about 937 drive-thru-type interviews.
Here's a quick Q&A with a guy we're going to get to know much, much better before draft day April 26, and who is very likely to end up here in Indianapolis:
Me: First time at a Super Bowl?
Luck: "No. I went to the one in Houston [eight years ago]. Luckily, having a dad who played in the league and worked for the league helped get us in to some stuff there. But, yeah, this was pretty interesting. I knew what to expect, but this was a zoo here today.''
Me: What are you doing to prepare for the Scouting Combine?
Luck: "Working out in Los Angeles with Athletes Performance Institute. Trying to get my hands on as much NFL tape as I can. I'm lucky. I was in a program at Stanford with coaches who had lots of ties to the NFL, so I've seen a lot. That's helped. And I'm trying to adjust to the speed of the NFL. I'm working with some receivers who have had NFL experience, like [former Chief] Samie Parker.''
Me: Your former offense coordinator, Greg Roman, tells me you'd often come in on Sunday and Monday and suggest things for the game plan the next week. Do you feel you've been able to advance your NFL knowledge at Stanford because of how many NFL coaches they've had there?
Luck: "I think we ran a very professional offense. Watching the 49ers this year with my teammates, it was almost eerie. We could call out the plays when we saw how they lined up. So I think I've been very fortunate to have the coaches and the experience there that I've had. Sometimes, when I might suggest something, we'd end up incorporating it, and if we wouldn't, it was never, 'Oh, you idiot.' There was always a lot of mutual respect there.''
Me: What else do you think will help you as you take the next step to the NFL?
Luck: "I pretty much have an unquenchable thirst for football knowledge.''
Somewhere this morning, new Indianapolis offensive coordinator Bruce Arians will be licking his chops when he reads that last sentence.
The Steve Gleason story.
Thanks for your kind words on Twitter Sunday after the story on ALS-stricken former Saint Steve Gleason ran on the NBC pregame show. Thanks also to producer Phil Parrish of NBC and production assistant Paige Westin for their diligence on the story. Many of you have asked how you can either help Gleason's cause or learn more about how he's trying to help ALS patients. You can do so by going to teamgleason.org
Two poignant parts of the story, one about the 34-year-old Gleason, who now is faced with the prospect of death because this is a fatal disease with no known cure, saying we should all live like we have a timeline. Two: His wife Michel saying with tears streaming down her face how much she'll miss his voice.
To that end, Gleason last summer began recording words and phrases, thousands of them, into a Steve Gleason voice bank so he'll be able to direct his voice through a computer once his muscles fail him and he's not able to speak anymore. I listened to his "synthetic voice'' over the weekend. "We have created a synthetic voice that sounds like my own voice,'' he says in the choppy but clearly recognizable voice patterns. "I hope you like it because you will be hearing from me for decades to come.''
Gleason had two ALS patients, one from Louisiana and one from Indiana, at the Super Bowl Sunday, the start of what he hopes to do with his foundation. "I want to be able to help ALS patients lead better lives,'' he said. "So many of them, when they get diagnosed, stop living the sort of full life that they still should be able to live. They don't have the resources to do it. I hope to be able to help some of them do the things they love to do. I refuse to give in to the disease. If I can help others do the same, I would be very happy.''
On the sidelines Sunday, before the game, Gleason greeted an admirer of his, Giants special-teams coach Larry Izzo ("Steve's one of the best guys ever to play special teams,'' Izzo said), who said to him, "It's so great what you're doing with your foundation.'' That was Gleason's victory on Sunday.

HCC narrows pool in VP search
Submitted by Leigh-Anne Mauk on Mon, 08/15/2005 - 12:00am
From an initial pool of 75 applicants, a search committee at Hagerstown Community College has chosen six finalists in the search for a vice president for academic affairs.
From an initial pool of 75 applicants, a search committee at Hagerstown Community College has chosen six finalists in the search for a vice president for academic affairs.
"We were fortunate to have a large and well-qualified group of applicants from which to choose," said Guy Altieri, HCC president and chair of the search committee. "The six who made the cut stood out from the others because their experiences most align with the vision we have set for HCC to continue its strong enrollment growth well into the future. The VP for academic affairs is a critical position on our campus and we are optimistic that we will soon have a strong leader in this position."
The six finalists, who will each visit the HCC campus in early September, include Janet Gross, Ph.D., of Newark, Del., former vice president of academic affairs at Keene State College in New Hampshire and former dean of arts and sciences at Shippensburg University; Walter H. Mackey, II, Ph.D., of Ann Arbor, Mich., adjunct professor and former associate dean/mathematics division director at Henry Ford Community College in Dearborn, Mich.; Paul Mazur, D.P.A, of Minneapolis, Minn., dean of liberal arts at North Hennepin Community College in Brooklyn Park, Minn.; Judith Oleks, Ed.D., of Peabody, Mass., former dean of professional studies at Bunker Hill Community College in Boston; Carole Richardson, D.P.A., of Hagerstown, director of instruction at Hagerstown Community College; and David Warner, III, Ed.D., of Hagerstown, executive director of the University System of Maryland – Hagerstown.
The search committee expects to announce an appointment of the vice president by the end of September. The position has been vacant since June 30, when Julian Sidlowski, Ph.D., retired.

Hunter Technical Support Document
Why does my valve close slow?
Product Lines:
FAQs, Troubleshooting
|Most irrigation valves are designed to close within 10 to 20 seconds of the solenoid deactivating. The most common reason why a valve would close slower than normal is that there is a restriction in the valve metering port(s). Hunter valves incorporate the metering ports in the diaphragm assembly. In the plastic center of the diaphragm assembly, there are small holes that meter (restrict) the amount of water that can flow to the top of the valve. If debris clogs these holes, the flow is restricted too much and the valve can either close real slow or stay open indefinitely. To fix this, simply replace the diaphragm assembly.

In 1998, Judy Shepard lost her
son, Matthew, to a murder motivated by anti-gay hate.
Turning tragedy into a crusade for justice, and determined
to prevent Matthew's fate from befalling others, she
established The Matthew Shepard Foundation to help carry on
his legacy.
Activist speaker Judy Shepard has
appeared in two Human Rights Campaign advertisements urging
an end to anti-gay violence and promoting a
greater understanding of gay issues. She is also actively
involved with Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and
Gays (PFLAG). In this capacity, she has written an open
letter to schools across the country urging officials to
make schools safer for gay students by promoting tolerance
and diversity.
Most recently, Judy Shepard authored the New York Times best-selling book, The Meaning of Matthew: My Son's Murder in Laramie, and a World Transformed,
a moving, intimate look at how her life, and the entire
fight for equal rights, changed when her son was killed.

On March 15, 1989, seventeen dedicated women of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds came together to create an outlet for women to initiate change. The foundation was built to fight against the injustices historically suffered by our gender. Although our orientation is Latina, we are open to women of all cultural backgrounds and the diversity of our membership, and interestingly the diversity of our seventeen founders' attests to this fact. Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated thrives on the diversity of its members and we attribute a lot of our success to our organization's ability to embrace each members' differences.
Sisterhood, Education, and Community Service were some of the principles that our founders used to lay the foundation of our organization. To this day they continue to serve as the foundation and spirit by which all of the members of Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated act upon.
The Beta Kappa chapter of Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated was established at the University of New Haven in Spring 2010 by four women. Our chapter's philanthropy is Immigration Outreach. As sisters we saw a need for advocacy within our community. We strive to educate people about the struggles that immigrants from all over the world face and the resources available to them in order to achieve their personal and professional endeavors.
The purpose of Omega Phi Beta Sorority Incorporated is to Serve and
Educate people of diverse backgrounds through sisterhood, leadership,
and guidance. As positive role models, we promote unity of all cultures,
focus on the empowerment of our gender and raise the standards of
excellence in our academic, social, and personal endeavors.
OPBSI envisions a world without oppression, where empowered women?celebrate the essence of womanhood and act as resources in the advancement of their communities.
